"With the game heading to overtime, both goalies had played up to their Hall of Fame resume's, Giguere stopped all 28 shots he faced thru regulation and Brodeur stopped all 25 he faced."

[spits coffee all over PC monitor]

This...this cannot possibly be real.

I mean...can it???

"A lot o' people don't realize what's really going on. They view life as a bunch o' unconnected incidents 'n things. They don't realize that there's this, like, lattice o' coincidence that lays on top o' everything. Give you an example; show you what I mean: suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness."

glad they came out with the win last night. I really love Zidlicky taking chances and sneaking behind the defense when the puck is deep in the corner. Just need the other guys to recognize him streaking in and get him the puck.

Henrique really is parise v2.0 with his play making ability and scoring touch. He has such a great all around game, that when he covered for Zidlicky he looked like a natural defenseman.

Larsson does look scared, and that giveaway in the last 5 secs of OT was a bit scary, before Greene blocked the shot.

Bruins are 12-16-1 in their last 29 GP...I knew they'd been struggling, but that is BAD. And that's not a small sample either.

I think the NHL network just said Thomas has a .733% over his last couple of games? I could be wrong.Another thing. Even though Bryz has been playing well..I think Brodeur now has a better GAA than him as well. (off topic but thought I should share)

Larsson had a better game tonight but boy does he still look lost out there many times.. I know he is a young rookie and all but he was not like this before his injury.

I honestly don't think it has to do with him being young because look at the rookie we played against last night and look at the the young D man in Ottawa. They're around the same age and doing fine.Larrson just might be a sketchy player.Hopefully he can clean it up over the years.

Crap. Missed it but it's saying it's on today at 3pm I think the same channel?

Brodeur notched his NHL record 118th career shutout, but said he would have been steaming if he didn’t win. “If I would have lost this, I would have been, ‘That’s awful, to have a shutout and lose,’ ” Brodeur said. “When you shut down a team you should have a win, not a loss.”

According to the awesome NHL Highlights, Marty made no impressive saves. It was literally a bunch of clips Giguere having pucks hit his giant pads, 2 pedestrian Marty saves and then the shootout goals.

From the comments here, I'm guessing this was a much more exciting game then they made it out to be on the highlights?

In one of the wildest things ever, Marty Brodeur's GAA is now better than Tim Thomas' (currently 2.36 to 2.40). That seemed pretty much impossible two months ago when Brodeur was close to 3 and Thomas was at 1.7. Shows how well Brodeur has played and how poorly Thomas has been.

Why would they play Marty both ends of a back to back and sit him in a big rival game? Moose is playing Tuesday, Marty will play the next two.

so the next time we play the pens on Mar 25, they face a different keeper in MB....

I'm no coach but its not just that there are back-to-backs but "when" they come.They've played alot this month so far.

If MB played last night (Thu) then rests Fri/Sat/Sun, plays Mon/Tue, rests Wed/Thu (with their next game on Friday 23)...it all means he's played just 2 games in 7 nights (between Thur-next Fri)So thats a lot of rest !
